Key Properties
Ultra-High Brightness
Controlled thermal calcination delivers brightness values of 91–95%, exceeding standard hydrous kaolin grades.
Excellent Opacity
Increased refractive index and air-void structure after calcination boost hiding power in paints and plastics.
Electrical Insulation
Low conductivity and high dielectric strength make it ideal for cable compounds and insulating components.
Weather & Dispersion Performance
Superior dispersion and weather resistance support long-lasting performance in exterior and industrial coatings.
